Tresor is fortunate enough to be sitting on a catalog of releases that no label in electronic music would turn down. Three of the finest were contributed by Surgeon; Basictonalvocabulary (TRESOR 10073LP), Balance, and Force + Form all originally came out on the Berlin institution between 1997 and 1999, and are the fullest expression of Surgeon's inimitable combination of Detroit techno and post-industrial sounds emanating from his British homeland. The Balance Remakes 12" accompanied the original 1998 release of Surgeon's second Tresor album, Balance, with additional versions as well as a remix by long-time Birmingham collaborator Mick Harris.
